Thirty Five
Thirty five+ years
of fighting an ED
Called bulimia
is far from easy
'cause healing
is not linear it's
setbacks falling
down & crawling
back up starting
over at point 0
the holistic work
i am doing with S
causes changes
slowly over time
going to the gym
and working out is
a mood boost yet
still didn't suffice
added microdoses
Truffles to the mix
it certainly asks for
some heavy artillery
this fucking ED of mine

Staying Healthy While Managing My Perfectionism
I haven't talked about this in a while. Honestly, it's always in the back of my mind.
As someone like me who's not going to live as long as someone without trauma, mental health issues, and so on, I'm honestly obsessed with my health. I have an orthorexia type brain. Can't say anything about anorexia because I don't starve myself at all yet I do have an obsession with thinness.
Naturally, when I eat a piece of cake (when I never do otherwise) or brownies at times or french toast, I feel that pang of guilt and shame. And it is intense.
I was bullied by a fat...

N/A
to each their own mission;
through human condition;
most want a million dollars;
I want a meal, and you;
just living in another land;
nothing "other than" comes true;
most want forty arcres and a mule;
one no longer wants to be an overused tool....
staring down one's reflection in a pool;
one just wants the spoon, when the chilly arrives;
the only thing that seems real....
...

Talking Glass
be quiet, the glass is talking”
whispering reflection
I’m hungry for the truth
not ready to believe
what the mirror has to say to me
a broken masterpiece
a perfect storm
she told herself she was good enough
the mirror smiled
and told her otherwise
I can’t believe what I see
this human being
withered away
but not yet free
the mirror isn’t listening
maybe I’m the one
who’s dead inside
this mirror isn’t broken
I’m just me
and the mirror laughed
whispering reflection
I’m hungry for the truth
not ready to believe
what the mirror has to say to me
a broken masterpiece
a perfect storm
she told herself she was good enough
the mirror smiled
and told her otherwise
I can’t believe what I see
this human being
withered away
but not yet free
the mirror isn’t listening
maybe I’m the one
who’s dead inside
this mirror isn’t broken
I’m just me
and the mirror laughed
